A PLAUSIBLE THEORY.
Seeds Carried Thousands OF stiles by Strong
atmospheric Currents.

Seeds Carried Thousands OF Milcs by Strong
atmospheric Currents.
At the meeting Of the National Acad-
envy of Scientists Prof. Alfred Russell
Wallace, the visiting English natur-
alist, read the most generally popular
paper which was presented. the subject
ging: the Wind as a Seed Carrier in
Relation 10 One of the Difficult Prob
ems in Geographical Distribution"
\ problem which has greatly interested
botanists is that some species Of plants
which have n wide distribution in the
southern hemisphere are also common
plants IN The north, many of them be-
ing of the Arctic fora, said the speaker.
This fact was considered rs remarkable
by Sir Joseph Hooker and has been
so considered hv other naturalists. The
lumber Of plants SO distributed is con-
siderable, there being from fifty 10 sixty
species in New Zealand and about the
same number each in Australia and
Patagonia. all Of which are identified
with those of northern ATTITUDES. many
being common British plants. Darwin
proposed Is the rnuSc the temperature
Tue To the extension OF the glaciers to
he equator, but this theory is now
found to disagree with known facts.
Five causes of distribution Of seeds are
prominent: One, sea %curronts: two,
birds eating fruits. the seeds of which
after digestion ARE found 10 be widely
distributed; three. seeds Of marsh
,N1o,tc hntry -, ,hn ,,,,,,l ,yhich aIbnrn.
10 the feet of wading birds, are carried
long distances; four, sticky seeds which
attach themselves to the feathers of
birds, and. fifth, the agency of
the wind. Another fact which must
be taken in connection with the fifth
cause is that seeds must needs find
comparatively bare areas Of earth in
which to terminate. In England, on
the bare earth Of railway cuts, the
dora which grew afterward was found
to be always different from that of the
adjacent country; SO on high mount
aims and bare areas over the earth are
he fields for introduced flowers. While
The power Of the wind to transport
seeds is not yet determined, still the
weight of evidence is that it is ample
or the transportation Of small. light
,ecds through considerable distance.
Just particles from the Java eruption,
If greater weight than many seeds,
we're found on the decks of vessels At
rom nine hundred to N thousand
niles distance AZ sea. Taken in coll-
lcction with the fact that these intro
iuced plants are mostly light-seeded
mes. the wind, without question. is a
most important factor IN their distribu-
ton. Prof. Wallace estimated that if
u single seed per square mile of terri
tory were deposited once per hundred

iGHT-HANDEDNESS
Why the Left Hand should be Trained q,
Well AS It's More Favored Mate.

Why the Left Hand should be Trained rs
Well rs It's More Favored Mate.
One writer has asked the question::
"Why should not hands be trained like
eyes, giving a free field TO each. and
no favor to eitherp The antiquity and
universally Of the preference are
enough to cause suspicion that it has
now got into the blood, and is not
likely to be easily eradicated."
That the left hand may be educated
to an efficiency equal to that of the
right has been repeatedly proven.
Whoever listened to the charming mu-
sic from a violin in the hands of ole
Bull, will remember with what Won
derful skill he manipulated the strings
of his instrument with the thumb and
fingers of his left hand. Our most
celebrated musicians, by long years Of
study and practice, are enabled TO use
the left hand with equal ease and pro-
t~iciency as the right. In fact, many of
the most difficult parts in instrumental
music are performed with the left
hand.
Certainly nothing would be lost by
any one who was able TO use the left
hand, for many things which are now
done only by the right. Then, in case
of any casualty which should deprive
one of the use of his right hand, il
would not necessitatc the tedious and
often unsuccessful effort Of educating
the left hand to perform the ordinary
work of life.
The education of the left hand with
the right should be commenced early
in life, and is worthy of the considera-
ton of those having the training of
youth in thcir Gotien Aute.

THE MILAN SCALA.

Interesting Facts Concerning the Second
Largcst Opera House In Europe.
The Scala is situated in the very
heart of the city, within a stones
throw of II Duomo and not very far
away from the park. When you look
1T it from the square in front. standing
near the pedestal of the statue of the
great Leon ardo da Vinci, the Scala is
a plain. commonplace, embarrassing
cdiiice. devoid of lnceworklik facings
or pompous Carrara marble. Its only
outward ornament, in fact. is a NINA
turc arcade built on smooth pillars
over the principal doorway. The in
terror, however, is quite grandio5e and
superb, with It's tessclated pavement,
lis cXquisitcly groinca roof and artistic
ally set galleries. Next to the world
renowned thcater Of Naples, the Scala
is the largest opera house in Europe.
Its stage is of such immense proper
tons that in the recent ballet, "Amor'

scenes with th" utmost facility.

The stock market to-day was quiet and some
what irregular, though generally heavy to weak.
The temper of the room was bulsh this morn
ing and there was considerable buying for out
oftown parties, but the bears and traders who
had put out short lines yesterday rested i'm
proved with vigor and during the forenoon made
a marked impression on the list. The principal
excuse offered for selling was reports of rate
cutting in the West London was buyer In the
early trading, but soon turned seller, which en-
couraged traders and smaller bears to hammer
the list Pacific Mail was the feature of the
first hours trading, on account of its unusual
strength. But the pressure was specially severe
upon coalers, especially Lackawanna and Dela-
ware and Hudson, which were forced of nearly
per cent. at one time. When this result had
been accomplished buying began TO tell and
considerable Improvement was made in the
afternoon, but most of this was again lost IN a
few minutes. The general list exhibited little
feature of interest, though Northwestern was
quiet and strong in the forenoon. The opening
was quiet, but became strong at advances over
last evenings final figures of from Kn8S per
cent and further small fractions were gained
in the early trading under the lead of Pacific
Mail but the market soon became very dull and
prices were carried back to opening figures. In
the decline coalers were the most conspicuous.
The tone of the market improved after IL
o'clock, but the recoveries were for small frac-
tons only and a renewal of the decline in the
last hour wiped out q greater part Of this gain.
